The cost of 5 stools and 2 tables is $342.00.

Find the cost of 1 table.  $ Answer: 86.00
Find the cost of 3 stools.  $ Answer: 102.00

SOLUTION 1 :

1 stool + 4 tables -------------> $378.00.
5 stools + 2 tables -----------> $342.00.

Step 1: 10 stools + 4 tables = $342.00 x 2
                                           = $684.00

Step 2: 10 stools - 1 stool = 9 stools
              9 stools -----------> $684.00 - $378.00
                                          = $306.00

Step 3: 1 stool = $306.00 ÷ 9
                        = $34.00

Step 4: 3 stools = $34.00 x 3
                         = $102.00

Step 5: 4 tables = $378.00 - $34.00
                          = $344.00

Step 6: 1 table = $344.00 ÷ 4
                        = $86.00

The cost of 1 table: $86.00

Step 1: 15 stools + 6 tables = $337.00 x 3
                                           = $1011.00

Step 2: 15 stools - 7 stools = 8 stools
                8 stools---------->$1011.00 - $747.00
                                          = $264.00

Step 3: 1 stool = $264.00 ÷ 8
                        = $33.00

Step 4: 7 stools = $33.00 x 7
                          = $231.00

Step 5: 6 tables = $747.00 - $231.00
                          = $516.00

Step 6: 1 table = $516.00 ÷ 6
                        = $86.00
